TOPIC: *SCRIPTURAL PROVISIONS FOR LIBERTY*

SCRIPTURE: And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. John 8:32

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: The Spirit of God is the Spirit of liberty. Flowing in the Spirit is flowing in the fountain of liberty

Knowledge is a powerful tool that sets people apart. Not knowing what is rightfully yours reduces you to a victim of satanic manipulation. You willingly become a prisoner to the devil and his agents.

The prodigal son knew what belonged to him even though he lacked managerial skills. Knowing the provisions God has made for you in Christ and appropriating them rightly and timely makes you a commander of the supernatural.

There are provisions in Scripture that establish liberty and deliverance for the people of God. These provisions show that freedom is not accidental; it is guaranteed in the Word of God – John 8:32, John 8:36.

Now, let us look at a few provisions that are ours from the scripture.

1. The promises of scripture forbid inherited liabilities and negativity.

The meaning is that we have promises in Scripture that we are not permitted to suffer what our fathers suffered. We are not permitted to carry the burdens our ancestors carried.

That is why Jeremiah 31:29–30 says, In those days they shall say no more, The fathers have eaten a sour grape, and the children’s teeth are set on edge. But every one shall die for his own iniquity: every man that eateth the sour grape, his teeth shall be set on edge.

This was repeated verbatim in Ezekiel 18:20: The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son.

2. The sacrifice of Calvary forbids inherited liabilities and ancestral Curses.

Whatever puts your life under pressure was taken away and handled by Calvary.

Galatians 3:13-14 confirms it: Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us… That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ.

3. The Blood of Jesus was a ransom paid for every evil transaction.

The Blood of Jesus paid the ransom for every inherited evil transaction.

Hear what Zechariah 9:11 says: By the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.

We have deliverance by the Blood of Jesus.

1 Peter 1:18–19 makes it clear: Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold… But with the precious blood of Christ.

4. The indwelling Spirit of God is the Spirit of liberty

The Spirit of God is the Spirit of liberty. Flowing in the Spirit is flowing in the fountain of liberty.

2 Corinthians 3:17 puts it succinctly: Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.

The spirit of God is the spirit of power (2 Timothy 1:7) and power gives us the capacity to receive freedom. Luke 10:19

Every time you pray in tongues, be conscious of the fact that you are releasing the forces of freedom, liberty and deliverance.

The indwelling Spirit of God is the Spirit of liberty. So, flowing in the spirit is flowing in the fountain of liberty.

Beloved, the Word of God clearly establishes that liberty is the will of God for His people. These provisions ensure that captivity is not the destiny of the child of God. Our liberty is already secured by Scriptural provisions. When these provisions are prayerfully and responsibly engaged, the believer walks in freedom.

Remember This: The Spirit of God is the Spirit of liberty. Flowing in the Spirit is flowing in the fountain of liberty.

ASSIGNMENT(S):

1. Stand on the promises of God in Scripture and refuse every inherited liability and ancestral negativity.

2. Engage the provisions of God in Scripture for our liberty – the Word, the name of Jesus, fasting, praise, the anointing, and prophetic covering.

PRAYER: Father, thank You for Your provisions for my liberty in Your Word. I stand on the promises of Scripture, the sacrifice of Calvary, and the power of the Blood of Jesus. Every yoke is destroyed, every burden is lifted, and every cage is broken. I receive liberty and deliverance, Lord, in Name of Jesus.

TOPIC: *SPIRITUALLY DISCERNED, PART I* I

MEMORIZE:

"Consider and hear me, O LORD my God: lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;"
Psalm 13:3 (KJV)

BIBLE READING: JUDGES 16:19-21

"19 And she made him sleep upon her knees; and she called for a man, and she caused him to shave off the seven locks of his head; and she began to afflict him, and his strength went from him.

20 And she said, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he awoke out of his sleep, and said, I will go out as at other times before, and shake myself. And he wist not that the Lord was departed from him.

21 But the Philistines took him, and put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza, and bound him with fetters of brass; and he did grind in the prison house."

MESSAGE:

There was once a young man who was the secretary of a cult group at the University of Ife (now Obafemi Awolowo University) in South-West Nigeria. One day, he gave his life to Christ and decided to leave the cult. Immediately, the other cult members decided to kill him because he knew their secrets.

One night, after arriving in his hostel from the library, he was very tired, so he said a quick prayer and got on his bed to sleep. As he lay on his bed, the Holy Spirit nudged him to get up and pray. He got on his knees, said another short prayer, and tried to sleep again. However, he got another nudge to pray, and he just thought to himself, “Well, let me pray just as God wants.” He did so, and as he got up from his knees, he saw a huge demon with charms all over its body walk into his room, even though the door was locked.

The demon made its way towards him, and he immediately started rebuking it in Jesus’ name. Slowly, the demon retreated from the room.

When he told me about the incident, I asked him, “Are you sure you weren’t dreaming?” He replied, “I’d have thought I was dreaming too; however, because of how I shouted when rebuking the demon, my roommate moved on his bed, and as he did so, his leg touched the demon as it retreated. My roommate’s leg, which touched the demon, swelled to three times its normal size, and he spent a year treating it.” Being spiritually discerning can be the difference between life and death.

As we read in Balaam’s story yesterday, disobedience to God’s instructions can prevent a Christian from discerning spiritual things. Are there instructions the Lord has given you to follow? Don’t try to negotiate your way out of complete obedience to Him. Always obey God’s instructions, because it will make your heart more sensitive to hearing Him.

Toying with sin will make a believer become spiritually dull. Samson didn’t know when his hair was cut because sin had made him spiritually dull. He was fast asleep and didn’t know that he was in trouble until Delilah woke him up. When he awoke, he wanted to fight the Philistines as he had always done, but he was unaware that God had left him.

Beloved, flee disobedience and sin so that you will remain spiritually discerning. May you not become spiritually insensitive and sleep the sleep of death, in Jesus’ name.

PRAYER POINT:

Father, please help me to obey You at all times so I never become spiritually insensitive

HYMNAL 30: WHEN WE WALK WITH THE LORD

1. When we walk with the Lord,
In the light of His word, What a glory He sheds on our way! While we do His good will He abides with us still, And with all who will trust and obey.

CHORUS:
Trust and obey!
For there's no other way
To be happy in Jesus,
But to trust and obey.

2. Not a shadow can rise,
Not a cloud in the skies, But His smile quickly drives it
away; Not a doubt nor a fear,
Not a sigh nor a tear, Can abide while we trust and obey.

CHORUS:

3. Not a burden we bear,
Not a sorrow we share
But our toil He doth richly
repay; . Not a grief nor a loss,
Not a frown nor a cross, But is blest if we trust and obey.

CHORUS:

4. But we never can prove the delights of His love, until all on the altar we lay, For the favour He shows And the joy He bestows Are for them who will trust and obey.

CHORUS:

5. Then in fellowship sweet We will sit at His feet, Or we'll walk by His side in the way, What He says we will do, Where He sends we will go, Never fear, only trust and obey.

TOPIC: *CHRIST—THE CHIEF CORNERSTONE*
_..The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord’s doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes? (Matthew 21:42)._

We learnt, in our previous study, one of the clearest truths in Scripture: The Lord Jesus Christ is the foundation of the Church. This is not an idea or a mere concept. In Matthew 21:42, He identified Himself as the stone spoken of in prophecy, the One rejected by the builders yet chosen by God to become the head of the corner.

The Apostle Paul, by the Spirit, also stated this plainly in 1 Corinthians 3:11, “For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.” That settles it. The Lord Jesus Christ is the only true foundation. No other foundation can be laid.

This aligns perfectly with the prophecy of Isaiah: “Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation…” (Isaiah 28:16). God was speaking here about a Person—Christ Jesus, who also quoted the same prophetic words in Psalm 118:22, when He said, “…Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?” (Matthew 21:42).

The rejection of Christ didn’t cancel God’s plan. It fulfilled it. The One they refused became the cornerstone of God’s eternal structure. In Acts chapter 4, the apostles proclaimed this truth boldly and made it unmistakable: “This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner” (Acts 4:11).

This is why the “rock” Jesus spoke of in Matthew 16 is not a revelation, and it’s not Peter. The Scriptures consistently identify Christ as the Rock, the Stone, the Foundation, and the Chief cornerstone. Paul further confirms this in Ephesians 2:20 when he said by the Spirit that we “...are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone.”

The stability of the Church is Christ, and those who believe in Him are founded on the Rock, immovable and victorious forever! This is the glory of the Gospel. Hallelujah!

CONFESSION
I’m founded on Christ, the Sure Foundation and Chief Cornerstone of the Church. My faith is anchored on Him alone and my life is built on His unshakable truths. I walk in stability, confidence and victory because I am founded on the Rock, Christ Jesus. Amen!

FURTHER STUDY
1 Peter 2:6-8 NKJV
Therefore it is also contained in the Scripture, "Behold, I lay in Zion A chief cornerstone, elect, precious, And he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame." [7] Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who are disobedient, "The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone," [8] and "A stone of stumbling And a rock of offense." They stumble, being disobedient to the word, to which they also were appointed.

Isaiah 8:14 KJV
And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

Psalm 118:22-23 KJV
The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner. [23] This is the LORD'S doing; it is marvellous in our eyes.

🍒🌽SEEDS OF DESTINY,A DUNAMIS CHURCH DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE

BY DR. PASTOR PAUL ENENCHE.

DATE: FRIDAY, 22ND. MAY, 2026.

TOPIC: *THE FORCE OF FAITH.*

SCRIPTURE: But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach. ROMANS 10:8.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: What God says about your situation is what builds your faith, not what circumstances say, not what the devil says, not what the medical report says.

Faith is the force that brings into manifestation the reality of the supernatural in the affairs of man. Christianity is founded on faith in the finished work of Jesus on the Cross of Calvary.
It is, therefore, crucial to understand what faith is all about so we can effortlessly work in the reality of it.
What then is faith? We shall be looking at one of the meanings of faith today.
Faith is accessing the thoughts and ways of God in order to experience the acts and wonders of God (Isaiah 55:9. Psalm 103:7).
Now, why is faith important?

1. Our Victory is Dependent on Our Faith
If faith is not at work, victory is not in view. 1 John 5:4 says, Whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world and this is the victory that overcometh the world which is our faith.
And in Ephesians 6:16, we see the instrumentality of faith to our victory over the wicked:
Above all taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
2. Our Life is Dependent on Our Faith
Life is at risk where faith is not at work. The just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2:4 and Romans 1:17.
3. Our Health and Wholeness Are Dependent on Our Faith
Jesus told the woman with the issue of blood, …thy faith had made thee whole.
Mark 5:34
Similarly in Luke 17:19, Jesus emphasized to the l***r, the necessity of his faith to his healing and wholeness: And he said unto him, to that one l***r, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole. Luke 17:19.
You see, your faith can determine whether you are healthy or sick.
Now, let’s have a look at the faith process

1. Word revelation. Faith begins where revelation or insight from the Word is found. That is Word insight (Romans 10:17).
What God says about your situation is what builds your faith, not what circumstances say, not what the devil says, not what the medical report says.
The Word is seed. Any area of life where you need harvest or result, find out what God is saying via His Word. Plant that Word in the soil of your heart and it will produce harvest in your life – Mark 4:14.
Beloved, if you are not standing on the Word, you are not standing in faith.
2. Heart Conviction
The revelation of the Word of God brings conviction to your heart. It is designed to birth conviction or belief in your heart.
The woman with the issue of blood heard about Jesus, got convicted in her heart, then she went against tradition, pressed through the crowd and touched Jesus out of a heart full of belief. And what happened? She was made whole! Jesus felt the touch because it was different from every other touch around him. Mark 5:27
What she heard produced belief in her heart and healing in her life.
3. Mindset Transformation
When the Word produces conviction in your heart, it changes the way you think.
The boldness of Peter and John was a resultant effect of their association with Jesus and that association turned them into men that other people marveled at – Acts 4:13.
Their timidity gave way for audacity because they had been with Jesus. When faith is at work, fear disappears and boldness is manifested.

Beloved, faith is the force that releases the reality of God’s promises in the life of the believer. Through the process of Word revelation and heart conviction the believer activates the force of faith.
When this cycle is engaged consistently, faith moves from theory to practice and produces undeniable results in the life of the believer.

Remember This: What God says about your situation is what builds your faith, not what circumstances say, not what the devil says, not what the report says.

ASSIGNMENT(S):
1. Stand on the Word of God and build your faith through revelation and conviction.
2. Engage the faith process: declare what you believe, act on the Word, celebrate in faith, and stand with steadfast determination.

PRAYER: Father, in the Name of Jesus, open my eyes to behold wondrous things out of Your Word. Cause Your Word to produce conviction in my heart, transform my mind, impart vision, and empower my declarations unto manifestation. I receive the grace to act in faith, Lord, in Jesus Name.

TOPIC: *SPIRITUALLY DISCERNED 1*

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE

MEMORISE:
But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. 1 Corinthians 2:14)

BIBLE READING: NUMBERS 22:22-23 (KJV)
22 And God's anger was kindled because he went: and the angel of the LORD stood in the way for an adversary against him. Now he was riding upon his ass, and his two servants were with him.

23 And the ass saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand: and the ass turned aside out of the way, and went into the field: and Balaam smote the ass, to turn her into the way.

MESSAGE:
Today's memory verse tells us that the natural man cannot understand the things of God because they are spiritually discerned. This means that such a fellow cannot follow God's direction, as he or she cannot understand spiritual things and will even consider them foolish. Those who walk in the spirit, however, know how to discern spiritual things.

For instance, when it seems that several people are trying to get a Christian angry, it could be that the devil is seeking to open a window through which he can attack him or her. If the believer cannot spiritually discern the devil's plan, he or she might eventually give in to anger, thereby giving the devil access to carry out his attack. Likewise, if a Christian keeps encountering people in need, especially if they are fellow Christians, it could be that

God wants the believer to help them so that He can open windows of blessings over his or her life. However, if the Christian cannot spiritually discern what is happening and ignores the people in need, he or she would miss out on God's blessing. Spiritual discernment is crucial in the journey of every Christian.

A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished. - (Proverbs 22:3)

In today's Bible reading, Balaam's donkey began to behave strangely when he was on his way to meet Balak despite God's initial instruction forbidding him from going (Numbers 22:12). Balaam was so spiritually insensitive that he didn't know the actions of the donkey were for his own good. When his donkey didn't move as he wanted it to and kept turning away from the path it was supposed to take, he hit it in an attempt to force it to obey him. Even when the donkey spoke, which was very strange,

Balaam was too spiritually insensitive to sense the danger ahead until God opened his eyes. I pray that your spiritual senses will be sharpened enough to see any dangers that are ahead of you, and you will be prudent enough to hide yourself, in Jesus' name.

The lack of spiritual discernment has destroyed so many homes and ended so many lives prematurely. This is why spiritual discernment is a must-have for you in your walk with God, relationship with others, and dealings with the world.

I pray that the Almighty God, in His mercy, will sharpen your discernment and help you see things as they really are, in Jesus' name.

PRAYER POINT:
Father, please help me to discern spiritual matters and see things as they truly are.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
NEHEMIAH 4-7

HYMN 28: GUIDE ME, O THOU GREAT JEHOVAH
1 Guide me, O my great Redeemer,
pilgrim through this barren land;
I am weak, but you are mighty;
hold me with your powerful hand.
Bread of heaven, bread of heaven,
feed me now and evermore,
feed me now and evermore.

2 Open now the crystal fountain,
where the healing waters flow.
Let the fire and cloudy pillar
lead me all my journey through.
Strong Deliverer, strong Deliverer,
ever be my strength and shield,
ever be my strength and shield.

3 When I tread the verge of Jordan,
bid my anxious fears subside.
Death of death, and hell's Destruction,
land me safe on Canaan's side.
Songs of praises, songs of praises
I will ever sing to you,
I will ever sing to you..

FRIDAY 22ND MAY 2026.

TOPIC: *THE CHURCH IS BUILT ON CHRIST*

And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. And I say also unto thee, THAT THOU ART PETER, AND UPON THIS ROCK I WILL BUILD MY CHURCH…” (Matthew 16:16-18).

Over the years, many have grossly misunderstood the underlined portion of the scripture above. Some have assumed the “rock” was the revelation Peter gave when he said Jesus was the Christ. Others have even assumed the “rock” was Peter himself. But neither of these is true.

The Lord Jesus was speaking about a Person when He said, “Upon this rock”; He was referring to Himself—Christ! In Greek, the distinction becomes even clearer. The Lord Jesus called Peter “Petrus,” meaning a stone, but He referred to the foundation as “Petra,” meaning a rock, a founding stone.

The Lord is that rock. He wasn’t saying, “Upon this ‘Petrus’ I will build my Church” but “Upon this ‘Petra,’” which is Christ the Rock, a foundation, a sure cornerstone: “...Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation...” (Isaiah 28:16). Christ had already been known in prophetic writings as the Rock.

So, when Peter said, “Thou art the Christ,” he was declaring that the Lord Jesus was the promised foundation. He was the one spoken of as the sure cornerstone. And the Master responded by revealing the prophetic reality: the Church would be built upon Christ, the Rock, and nothing from hell could prevail against it.

This connects with the prophetic vision in Daniel. Daniel spoke of the stone cut out without hands that struck the image at its feet of iron and clay, and the whole structure collapsed (Daniel 2:34-35). That stone became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.

The interpretation was clear: “Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth” (Daniel 2:35). That's the mountain of the Lord's house.

The stone is Christ, and that mountain is His everlasting dominion. The Church is built on Christ, and because the Church stands firm on Him, the gates of hell cannot prevail against it. This is the certainty of our faith. Christ is our Rock; we’re established on Him forever.

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the light of your Word and the certainty of the truth revealed in Christ. My faith is established on Christ, the Rock, and the Gospel prevails in every nation, and the righteousness of Christ is established in the hearts of men, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY
1 Corinthians 3:11 KJV
For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

Ephesians 2:19-22 KJV
Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; [20] And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; [21] In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: [22] In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

1 Peter 2:4-6 KJV
To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious, [5] Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. [6] Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.

DATE: THURSDAY, 21ST. MAY, 2026.

TOPIC: *LIVING IN THE BLESSING.*

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Living in the blessing means living as a positive change agent, a difference maker on earth.

SCRIPTURE: And their seed shall be known among the Gentiles, and their offspring among the people: all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which the LORD hath blessed. ISAIAH 61:9.

Beloved, throughout Scripture, it is made clear that living in the blessing is the perfect plan of God for His people. God never intends for His people to step in and out of the blessing; He wants them to live in the blessing.
And God blessed them. And God said unto them, Be fruitful, multiply, replenish the earth, subdue it, have dominion. Genesis 1: 28
We are designed and destined by God to live in the blessing.

Now, what does it mean to live in the blessing?
It is:

1. Living in the Realm of productivity and fruitfulness.
To live in the blessing means to live in the realm of productivity and fruitfulness, where there is no department of your life that is fruitless or barren. Genesis 1:28
Fruitfulness was one of the first blessings pronounced on Adam and Eve.
As a child of God, every department of your life is expected to experience productivity and fruitfulness.
The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
Psalm 92: 12
2. Living in the realm of exemption from generational frustration
To live in the blessing is to live in the realm of exemption from generational frustration.
There was famine in the land, yet Isaac sowed in that same land and received in that same year a hundredfold and the Lord blessed him – Genesis 26: 12.
That was exemption from generational frustration. Beloved, your case is different.
3. Living in the realm of favour and acceptance.
To live in the blessing is to live in the realm of favour and acceptance.
Joseph experienced favour in Potiphar's house and that favour manifested even in the prison. The same favour brought him before Pharaoh the king of Egypt and elevated him (Genesis 39: 4, Acts 7:10).
Esther found favour in the sight of the king and became the queen of the Persian Empire. That same favour preserved her and her people who were scheduled for extermination by the plot of Haman (Esther 2:17, Esther 5:1-2).
When you live in the blessing, there is something about you that carries the perfume of favour.
4. Living in Command and Control in All Situations
To live in the blessing is to be in command and control in all situations.
When you are a blessed man or woman you are an all-weather person. Whatever weather the devil wants, you are in charge. Genesis 1:28.
That was the story of Jacob: Laban changed his wages ten times, but God did not allow Laban to hurt him. Whichever way Laban turned, Jacob was in charge – Genesis 31:7.
5. Living as a Positive Change Agent
Living in the blessing means living as a positive change agent, a difference maker on earth.
There are people whose presence cannot be ignored. Their arrival signifies positive transformation. They show up and good things begin to happen.
Laban testified concerning Jacob in Genesis 30:27 saying, …. for I have learned by experience that the Lord hath blessed me for thy sake.
6. Living in Health, Strength and Longevity
Living in the blessing also means living in health, strength, vitality and longevity – Psalm 41:1-3.

Beloved, no witch can kill you. No wizard can waste your life. No wicked man can eliminate you from the earth before your time.
Abraham, Isaac and Jacob were not waste-able in their times, and so you are not waste-able.

Beloved, living in the blessing is the perfect plan of God for His people. It is a life of fruitfulness, favor, dominion and preservation. It is a life where your case is different and your presence makes a difference.

Remember This: Living in the blessing means living as a positive change agent, a difference maker on earth.
